Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
Siavash Motallebi and I (Sherwin Baradaran) met each other on 2017 and decided to work each other as a Band
we started composing at that time because we believe that if we want to be famous worldwide we must have original tracks which are represent our feelings and culture, so we made an album called Mithra and have released on Jan 2020 and then Arman tirmahi and Sasan Soflae have joined the band recently.

How would you describe your style? Which bands influenced your music? 
Well I have to say we are Death metal band but we try to use some elements from our culture and our traditional music there are lots of bands which I personally love them such as Opeth and Amon Amarthm, Megadeth and... but I think Opeth has great influence on our musical career 

Why should a metalhead buy your demos/albums?
I guess listening to our songs can be a different experience for a western metalhead and we are trying to introduce Eastern music in metal genre 

What have you released so far and how were your releases received by the public/media? 
Recently our album has been released and it is called Mithra and it is available on famous streaming sites like Spotify and Apple Music... I think people like it but we are looking for a better opportunity to share our songs among metal fans 

Do you play live as well? How's your live activity so far?
As Anoushbard band I have to say no we didn't have that opportunity but each of the members has a great experience in playing in concerts. In our country having a metal concert in against the Islamic law. We are looking forward to having concert outside of Iran.

What should labels/zines/promoters know about your band? Why should they be interested in it?
I think they can find our music unique in Metal genre 

What plans do you have for the near future as a band?
Right now we are working on new album and we are song writing and composing some songs hope in the future you will hear it.

Where can we listen to your band and where can we buy your stuff?
We have an official website (www.anoushbard.com) you can find our social media links there and find us on Spotify and youtube...
